Generators

Hydrogen-cooled generators are used for rating up to 600 MVA for simple cycle, combined cycle and steam power plants. This increased capability is due to better heat transfer and lower density characteristics of hydrogen compared to air. Also, the generator is completely sealed and thus more appropriate in an environment that might have detrimental effects on an air-cooled generator.
